Successful KWPN Stallion Show 2019

/in /by

The annual KWPN Stallion Show for Foal Auction Prinsjesdag went very well in several respects. Two dressage and two jumping stallions have been designated for the performance test and the booth of Foal Auction Prinsjesdag was well attended every day.

Every year the KWPN Stallion Show is a wonderful meeting place for breeders, rearers and sports enthusiasts, and of course the stand of Foal Auction Prinsjesdag in particular. On Thursday 31 January and Friday 1 February the drinks were pleasant highlights and a great kick-off for the coming season. Four stallions that were auctioned in 2016 received an invitation for the performance test and that is a good score. It is:

  • Quality Boy PB Z (Quickly de Kreisker x Baloubet du Rouet, breeder P. Bastiaansen from Tilburg) owned by Egbert Schep and Hans van der Louw
  • Leviathan (For Pleasure x Untouchable, breeders N. and JJ Smit-De Goede from Hoge Hexel/Mildam) owned by Rinus Blom
  • Leerava (Florencio x Negro, breeder C. van Etten) owned by Conny Pellikaan
  • LA Zonik (Zonik x Goodtimes, breeder AJ Lievaart from Wijckel) owned by Andreas Helgstrand

Cresswell LVP Z on track

/in /by

The Casall son Cresswell LVP Z, who is just seven years old, is doing well. This gelding, sold at the Foal Auction Prinsjesdag in 2012, has been paired with the Belgian Kelly Vandousselaere since the beginning of this year and has already won two victories this month.

Kelly and Cresswell LVP Z won both the 1.30m and 1.35m for young horses at CSI2* Oliva – Valencia. In the 1.40m class, the breeding product of Luc van Puymbroek of the LVP Stables jumped double clear and finished fifth. As a foal, this interestingly bred Casall son already stood out positively. He is bred out of a half-sister of the Holsteiner stallion Claudio's Son (s.Claudio) and represents the leading tribe 275.

Cresswell LVP Z is owned by Linico Horses and has previously performed with Lieven Devos, with whom he participated in the World Championships for young show jumpers in 2017, and Vincent Lambrecht. We will continue to follow him!

The first viewing of the KWPN stallion selection resulted in an invitation to the KWPN Stallion Show for five Prinsjesdag horses. Sons of For Pleasure, Quickly de Kreisker, Gandhi, Florencio and Glock's Zonik will make an appearance in the second viewing.

During the first viewing in Ermelo, the For Pleasure son Leviathan (ds. Untouchable) of R. Blom showed himself to be a very talented horse. The stallion was bred by N. Smit and JJ Smit-de Goede and comes from a real sport line. The Quality Boy PB Z (Quickly de Kreisker x Baloubet du Rouet) owned by E. Schep and JJ van der Louw, bred by P. Bastiaansen, also made a strong impression. This interesting stallion is a half-brother of the recognized Grand Prix stallion Carrera VDL.

International transfer
Among the dressage stallions, the Zonik son LA Zonik (ds.Goodtimes, breeder AJ Lievaart from Wijckel) of DK Dressage Horses from Helvoirt earned an invitation for the second viewing. In Ermelo it was announced that this talent of Demy Kurstjens has now come into the hands of Andreas Helgstrand. Landal G (Ghandi x Rousseau), bred by MA de Groot, also made a good impression. More than two years after being auctioned in Ermelo, N. Donkers' stallion convinced again. The third dressage stallion with a ticket for the second selection round is the Leerava (Florencio x Negro), bred by the late C. van Etten, by CY Pellikaan. Breeders and owners good luck in Den Bosch!
